Rejected
16 signatures
What the petition asks
Sarah Vine was the author of the incredibly sexist Daily Mail article issued today in which the title read "Who Won Leg-sit". I would like Sarah Vine as well as other representatives of the Daily Mail to issue an apology to Theresa May and Nicola Sturgeon who were both victimised by this article.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
